"Initialize interactive with project" in VS2017

Question

I was using intensively the "Initialize interactive with project" option for building and initializing projects on the C# Interactive console in VS2015.

I see that in VS2017 RC this option is missing from the project context menu (right-click) of projects in the solution explorer.

Doe's anyone know a workaround for this issue?

The "Execute in Interactive" is not suitable for me, I want to have context to the full project in the interactive console.

This option is available in Visual Studio 2017, in the same way it was on Visual Studio 2015 update 2. Although, it is only available on .NET Framework projects. If your project targets .NETCoreApp it will not be available.

Note: Tested on Visual Studio 2017 up to date.
